Drill press fix part 1, MARC LECUYER

[@petera1033]

Marc - just wanted to thank you for your generosity and your giving nature- your efforts are no doubt much appreciated and valued by people who have an interest in learning/improving/experiencing machining. I enjoy watching your videos very much and look forward to them with interest. All the best Pete

Really enjoyed the tip regarding the Center Head. Thanks for all the great videos!!!!

[@tooterr101oldgeezer4]

enjoyed the video. Really like the different sayings you you have posted in different videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge

Nice project. It's funny how our tools themselves can be some of the biggest drivers for doing work with them. I've probably spent more time on modifications for my lathe and mill than on any other category of project.

Marc, I went to your website and you don't have video 006 posted. Just goes from 005 to 007. Thanks for posting this video. I will have to keep this repair in mind.

+ww_big_al Hi big Al ! You were very close, look in the "green" section on page three of the website. It is a little quickie video and you were looking in the "orange" Project and operations section. I don't think I could have made the page any more confusing, that's what you get when a machinist makes a webpage. Here is a link to the video kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2XIeqaGjsSsjdk Thanks for watching and for taking the time to write, Marc

Great video. Unless I am mistaken you and I have the same lathe and the same mill. Crsaftsman 12" and Grizzly G1007.

Mark I wish I grew up with an uncle like you!

[@THATLAZYMACHINIST]

+Micscience Hi Micscience or can I call you Mic? I am the only trades person in a very academic family! No one in my family watches my videos or is even remotely interested in machining and that is OK. Don't get me wrong, we have great fun together and are a very close family but I am glad that KZbin gives me a way to share what I received freely from very competent (and mostly departed) tradesmen. This trade has given me a great and stimulating life and I hope that sharing will help others to be amazed at what they can do. Thanks for watching and for a great comment, Marc

I'm enjoying your video and am in the process of refreshing my drill press at the present time. As a quickie inquiry to your red lathe, I was wondering if it is a Carroll Jamieson? Saw one for sale in Fredericton and it is red too! Hadn't heard of a Carroll Jamieson before that one. Love your videos as a very invoice lathe operator.

+Doug Jackart Hi Doug! The lathe is an Atlas and from what I have heard they use to be sold by Sears as " Craftsman 12 inch lathe". There is a lot of pictures and info on the web. I found my lathe in three crates at the back of an old barn that was going to be torn down. I was young and poor at the time and I was quite excited to buy it for 50 dollars. It took me a year to get it assembled and working and in the process I painted it red because I was fed up of looking at drab gray or green machines at work. It dates from the early fifty's so that makes it older than I am, so I treat it with respect. It is a great little machine and has served me well, I wouldn't use it to make a living but for a home shop it is great. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to write, Marc

[@noelhenderson700]

I have that very same box tool you have hanging beside your hatchet. Mine came from Lee Valley Tools. (no plug intended :-) )

[@THATLAZYMACHINIST]

+Noel Henderson Yes the ugly roofing hammer is from Lee Valley Tools. I think it's called the loaner because you don't care if it comes back! thanks for watching, Marc

[@paulcampbell5202]

Dear Marc Nice video! I look forward to seeing the rest of the series. What size motor do you have on your lathe? Is it single or three phase? I have a 1990 Myford 7X19 and a 196O's Standard Modern (metric) Utilathe 12X36 both running on 3 phase inverter drives. Best wishes from North Bay, Ontario. Paul

[@mimlomiani6949]

Can I ask what is the name of the lathe you are using in this video ? Thank you. Oh by the way, I have been following your video's for many years now, and I tout I had lost you, but recently I find your video's again searching for learn something about the milling machine. It always is a Treat looking at your video and learning from them. Thank you. GOD BLESS......:)

[@robhillstrom3283]

Mimlo Miani it's an old craftsman/atlas

[@djackart4491]

Novice not invoice - darn spell checker!

[@rasmillion]

Who need to artificially age the aluminum, just keep it in a box for 30 years

[@brianhostak3961]

Hey Marc, glad too see I'm not only onethat saves scrap for 30 + years. In fact Ithink I have stuff (scrap) my father probablyhad around 30 years. I really enjoy your videos.

[@THATLAZYMACHINIST]

+Brian Hostak Like I say to my wife who often wonders why? Well honey it could be useful someday! Thanks for watching, Marc

[@ianbertenshaw4350]

+THATLAZYMACHINIST but don't you just hate it when you have a clean up and chuck something out and two weeks later find you need that off cut for something '
